We offer clients a range of fixed‑fee legal packages covering everything that small businesses and startups need – company set up, contract review and negotiation, employment, capital raising, and data protection. We run our business like a tech startup, with user experience, creativity, and lean thinking at the core of our culture.
About the role
Sprintlaw operates as a legal consultancy, not a law firm. As an independent contractor at Sprintlaw, you’ll be able to log into our platform whenever you like and pick up the projects you want to do.
We work flexibly with our contractors so you can decide:
When you work
The volume of projects you do
The type of work you do
We’ll set you up with our online project management systems, automated invoicing system, and workflow automations – so all you need to do is work with the end client to deliver their fixed‑fee projects.
If you’re running your own practice and looking to partner with a company like Sprintlaw, we’d love to receive your application.

We’re looking for independent contractors who:
✅ Have 4+ years of experience in broad commercial & corporate areas of law.
✅ Are set up as a private company (either as a legal consultancy or independent SRA regulated law firm).
✅ Have Public Liability Insurance of at least £2m.
✅ Understand our mission to make legal services simple and efficient for small businesses.
✅ Can follow our brand guidelines to ensure a consistent Sprintlaw client experience.
✅ Can keep us updated on changing capacity.
Ideally, you are someone who
Is personable – with experience working directly with clients.
Is tech‑savvy – able to operate our technology platforms.
Has excellent communication skills (as we operate entirely online, how you communicate with small businesses is very important).
Has experience in any of the following areas:
Commercial
Corporate structuring & capital raising
Employment law
Intellectual property (including trade mark applications and oppositions)

NFP and charity set up
Data privacy compliance
Our preference is to work with contractors who have a broad set of expertise areas and can service more clients, but we also sometimes work with specialist contractors depending on the area of work.
